The first thing to do is to read the part number written on the relay case, and the manufacturer's name. It may be a simple matter of buying a direct replacement. If not, you have to determine the coil voltage for the relay (usually part of the part number; 12V, or 24V are most used.) And you need to determine if it is double pole or 4 pole. Then you measure the dimensions for the pin - pin distances and go to and find a replacement that fits.

The higher the contact current rating, the better. Let's start with the part number. Post it here and I'll try to help. So, I was able to easily pry open the top to the relay. I followed a guide online and cleaned the contacts with strips of paper and a small amount of contact cleaner on the strips. Soldered the relay back on and fired it up. No cut out on either channel.

I confirmed this by testing it multiple times. I'm going to go ahead and order another relay as back up because I'm sure to have the issue again, but for now I'll enjoy the awesome sound this amp puts out. I just wish I knew the specs. I can't find them anywhere. Thanks for your help! I don't have any links since it's been awhile since I've did this but I do remember seeing a video online of someone doing the exact same thing with a relay on an old Marantz unit.

I would recommend de-soldering the relay to do exactly what I did. The top should pop right off but you want to make sure you push down on the contacts when you insert the strips with deoxit so both pieces are in contact with the strip and can be cleaned. Worse case if you damage the relay you can just replace it with an equivalent.
